[Era, raising children, rural areas, rough men doting on their wives]
Her husband passed away unexpectedly, and Jiang Yue became a "lost star" despised by everyone. Her husband's family turned against her and she was ruthless, and people in the village feared her. She was holding her infant baby and couldn't even get enough to eat.
Just when she thought she would freeze to death with her children this winter, Shen Tuo, the cold-faced hunter who lived alone in the west of the village and was feared by everyone, started delivering things to her door every night.
Steaming pheasants, warm firewood, and even cotton to make clothes for the dolls.
The gossip in the village became increasingly ugly, saying that she was shameless and flirted with men.
Jiang Yue was afraid of him and wanted to return the things, but was blocked by the man in the corner, and his tall figure completely enveloped her. His hot chest was pressed against her back, and his voice was deep and hoarse: "Who dares to say one more word to the person I, Shen Tuo, protect?"
The man's warm breath brushed against the shell of her ear, making Jiang Yue feel weak all over. Her silent heart was disturbed by him. She thought that she was willing to gamble again for the baby who was waiting to be fed, and for the man who could pamper her to the heavens.
